THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, THURSDAY, JUNE 27th, 1935 PAGE ELEVEN SPECIAL SESSION 0F COUNTIES COUNCIL CONSIDER TENDERS Work on New House of Refuge 4b Llkely te, Start ln Near Future A special meeting ai the Caun- ties Counicil wiii be held in one week at night and withaut pay ta iurther consider the Hause ai Refuge ten- ders. Delay in cisposing ai the ten- ders which the building cammittee had received and delibcratcd in pre- paration for the sessions just con- ciuded was necessitated by incan- clusive information and resuit from their interview with the Hon. David Cro11, Minister ai Public Welf are. and M. A. Sorsoliel, Deputy Minister, in a hurriediy arranged interview Thursday atternoon. Warden Stinsan and his associate members ai the committee motoed te Toronto and sandwiched a com- pact conversation into a short in- tervai betore Mc. Crail le! t far an appointment in Montreai. It is estimated that a new building wiiI cast about $48.000. The caunicil has sightly icss than $30.000 of the $34,000 insurance they received for the oss ai the aid structure. The estimate ai $48.000 does not include the cost of cquipment such as iurn- ishings, kitchen, iaundry and ather incidentais. The difierence ai araund $20.000 in the cast ai the building was ac- centuated by the cauncil's policy ai avoiding the issue ai ncw deben- tures. Aware af this attitude, the council turned ta the Minister aof Publiie Welare in the hope that1 financial help in some farm or tb-1 er might be forthcaming tram that1 quarter. As a condition ta, a defin- ite expression in regard ta relief abor that might be empioyed an thei building, Hon. Mr. Croil asked for a iist ai structural tradesmen on re- liief, espcciaiiy in Cobourg and Part Hope. Warden Stinsan said the Minister cansidered such towns as Campbeliiord and Bowmanville to far tram the site ta the House of Refuge ta warrant the cost of their transportation. Counties' Present Wards In reporting te the council the1 outcomc ai the aiternoon's mission,i Warden Stinson said that more thant thirty men are housed at present in( the remnant wing ai the Hause ai Refuge, temporary quarters.

Mr. Opposed ta Debt Reeve Hotn-I arn not in f avar ai the counties gaing inta debt. I don't think we will get any more aid age pensioners. They will be taken care af at home on the con- sideratian af getting the pension. Reeve G. Annms, Daringon- I agree with Mc. Hoaton. I know af one home in~ my neig'bdrhaod who is willlng ta board three or four aId people as a means ai sup- porting their own family. Reeve MacCrol. Campbeilford, ex- pressed doubt that a new Hou.sc af Refuge could be built for $30,000. He said that at a cost of $4 a week it might be worth while considering the boarding plan on some scale. Dcputy Reeve E .C. McKeel, ai, Campbellfard, said that a Refuge built on a smaller plan than the aId one might serve as clearing bouse foc a number ai inmates who might stay there anly until suitable baarding homes could be abtained for them. Reeve R. R. Mallory, ai Percy Township- One thing against the boarding plan is that as soon as any one af aur wards became sick thcy would be immediately sent ta a bas- pital. One man tram aur township was sent te haspital after being re- movcd iram here ta the Laket ieid Hause ai Refuge aiter the tire, and the hospital cost ta the municipality is $1.75 a day. Deputy Reeve R. Annis. Seymour -I dont want ta see these coun- tics assume any mare debt. but we must have a respectable place for the aid people who become depen- dent on the caunties. I can't see baw the boarding plan woulci worî satisiactarily. Dcputy Reeve UJ. E. Waterman. F. D. Baggs, K. C., solicitor; ad- vised the Counties Cauncil that the Board ai Management ai the House ai Refuge last year had exceeded its autharity in signing an agree- ment engaging the Canadian Adjust- ment Bureau at a ice of $1.020 to coliect the $34.000 insurance due the caunties for the destruction af the Hause ai Refuge in iast December's f ire. Statute and by-law clcarly iimited the duties and powers ai the Board ai Management ta the con- trai,, management and supervision ai the Hause ai Refuge. The retiring Board had assumed the pawers of the cauncil in entering into the pur- ported agreement. Reeve R. 0. Joncs, Bowmanvilie, moved that the solicitor write the Bureau that the council did not re- cagnize its dlaims for $1,020. Reeve C. G. Mercer, Part Hope. seconded it, and the resolution was unanimousiy adopted. ý1 No Assessment Change A clause in the Equalizatian o! Assessment repart, to reduce Danl- ington township's asseszment for county purposes by $400,000 was de- eted in council an Reeve N. A. Mac- Coli's motion, seconded by Reeve M. Booth, Cobourg. It was stated that the suggcsted reduction in Dar- lington's f avor wauid have ta be spread avec the other municipalities. This wauld impose an increase af 84&0 in Cobourg's taxes, as an exam- ple of the eiicct ai the propased change. Daringtan's remedial opinion is ta appeai ta the counties judge with- in twenty days if the township in- tends ta press for a reduced equai- ized assessment in 1936. Restricted Area Favored The council unanimously adopted ,.~e repart ai the Agricutucal cam- n..1ttee requesting the provincial gov- ernmnent ta include Northumberland, while, the Ontario Department of! bylaws thraugh their readings.
